Before You Begin

IMPORTANT! The dimensions stated in this installation guide are
for a 36" (91.4 cm) vanity height, which is standard countertop
height. If an alternate height is desired, you must calculate your
own measurements for backing material height and bracket height.
Observe all local building codes.
Unpack the new product and inspect it for damage.
Assistance is recommended to successfully install the product.
If a lavatory/vessel will be installed, install the water supply and
drain lines before installing the vanity. Refer to the roughing-in
information included in the lavatory installation guide to properly
position the water supply and drain lines with the vanity
cutout/vessel location.
To properly support the vanity, 2x12 backing material must be
used in the finished wall.
Make sure the finished wall is straight and plumb, and the floor
is flat and perpendicular to the finished wall.
Select lag bolts according to your finished wall thickness and
rated with a minimum of 300 lbs (136.08 kg) load bearing.
